Ask your data anything. Safely.
Data Insights lets your team ask questions of your databases in plain English and get clear, source-backed answers — without exporting data, writing SQL, or exposing databases to uncontrolled AI tools.
Your organisation sits on rich operational data locked behind databases that only a few people can query. Data Insights gives everyone access — with column-level permissions, read-only execution, and a full audit trail.
Your data is valuable. Accessing it shouldn’t be hard.
Your organisation collects rich operational data every day. But getting answers from it means:
- Waiting days for an analyst to run a query you could describe in one sentence
- Exporting data into spreadsheets where it drifts out of date immediately
- Copying sensitive data into AI chat tools you don’t control or audit
- Writing SQL manually when you know what you want but not the syntax
- Having no idea who queried what, when, or what they saw
Data Insights gives everyone safe, auditable access to the answers locked in your databases.
How Data Insights works
A privacy-first natural language interface to your structured business data.
Ask in plain English
Type a question like "How many support tickets were escalated last month?" and get an accurate answer with the underlying data. No SQL required.
Your data never leaves
Unlike other AI data tools, CloakAI queries your database in place. No data is copied, ingested, or stored on our servers. Results are ephemeral.
Column-level access control
Admins decide which tables and columns each role can query. Sensitive fields like salary or national insurance number can be denied, masked, or filtered per user.
Full audit trail
Every query is logged: who asked, what SQL ran, when, how many rows returned. Exportable as CSV or JSON for compliance reporting.
Semantic layer for accuracy
Admins describe tables and columns in plain English, add common questions as examples, and define calculated metrics. The AI uses this context to generate better SQL.
On-prem database support
Databases behind firewalls? Install the CloakAI agent on your network. It proxies queries over an encrypted outbound connection. No inbound ports required.
From connection to answers in six steps
Set up in minutes. Start asking questions immediately.
Connect your database
Provide read-only credentials for PostgreSQL or SQL Server. The connection is encrypted and stored securely. No data is copied.
Sync the schema catalog
Data Insights reads your table and column names — metadata only. This gives the AI the context it needs to write correct SQL.
Curate the semantic layer
Describe your tables and columns in plain English. Add common questions as examples. The more context you provide, the better the results.
Set access policies
Control which tables and columns each user role can query. Deny, mask, or filter sensitive data. Policies are enforced before the AI even sees the schema.
Ask questions
Users type questions in plain English. Data Insights generates SQL, validates it for safety, executes it read-only, and returns a clear answer with the data.
Save and share
Bookmark useful queries for one-click re-execution. Organise them into collections and share with your team.
Why Data Insights, not a generic AI data tool?
Query-in-place
Most AI data tools require you to export or copy your data into their platform. CloakAI queries your database directly. Your data never touches our servers.
Read-only by design
Every query is wrapped in a read-only transaction. Even if the AI made a mistake, it cannot modify your data. The generated SQL is validated against an AST-level safety analyser before execution.
UK-hosted infrastructure
CloakAI runs in UK data centres (London). For UK public sector and regulated organisations where data residency matters, this is a hard requirement.
No model training on your data
Query results transit the relay ephemerally for summarisation, then are discarded. The LLM provider has zero data retention. Your data is not used for model training.
Built for regulated organisations
NHS, defence, local government, and financial services sit on rich data but face severe restrictions on where it can go. Data Insights solves this by keeping data in place.
No per-query pricing surprises
Your annual licence covers unlimited queries. Users should feel free to ask questions without worrying about cost. No metering, no overage charges, no surprises.
Built for organisations that care about their data
Operations and service delivery
Managers ask "How many support tickets were escalated last month?" or "What is our average response time by priority?" without waiting for a data analyst to run a report.
Finance and procurement
Finance leads query revenue by project, spend by supplier, or outstanding invoices by age — instantly. No spreadsheet exports, no email requests to the BI team.
HR and workforce planning
HR teams ask about headcount by department, time-to-hire trends, or training completion rates. Column policies ensure salary data is restricted to authorised roles.
Public sector and local government
Council officers query service delivery data, FOI request volumes, or planning application timelines. On-prem databases stay behind the firewall.
Healthcare and NHS
Clinical and operational staff query patient flow data, waiting list metrics, or bed occupancy rates without exposing PII. Column masking protects identifiable fields.
Defence and security
Operational data that cannot leave secure networks. The on-prem agent allows querying databases behind firewalls with no inbound ports required.
